1 Nurturing financially capable individuals through financial education at schools: Programmes and Evaluation OECD-Brazilian International Conference on Financial Education December 16, 2009 Brent A. Neiser, CFP Director, Strategic Programs and Alliances, NEFE
2 Who is the National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE )? A nonpartisan, independent, 501(c)3 nonprofit, self-funded foundation located outside of Denver, Colorado, USA Committed to educating Americans about personal finance and empowering them to make positive and sound decisions to reach their financial goals.
3 What does NEFE do? Education Programs Provides financial planning information to youth (high school and college) Strategic Programs and Alliances Provides financial education in cooperation with other nonprofit organizations and foundations Multimedia Access Shares financial education with consumers, educators, and media Innovative Thinking Supports fellowships programs, grantmaking, research, strategic activities, and public policy work
4 Evaluation: Think Outcomes, Not Outputs Inputs Activities Outputs Outcomes Outcomes are benefits/changes for participants during or after program activities New knowledge Increased skills Changed attitudes modified behavior improved condition Source: United Way
5 Evaluation of Student Programs We will cover: 1. NEFE s High School Financial Planning Program 2. NEFE s College Program, CashCourse 3. NEFE s Evaluation Toolkit and other grant projects
6 NEFE High School Financial Planning Program (HSFPP ) Complete money management curriculum Over 6,000,000 student guides sent out to an estimated 200,000 classrooms Teacher Training Program
7 Evaluation of NEFE High School Financial Planning Program Evaluated by the University of Minnesota in 1998, 2004, and 2010 Purpose of evaluation: Assess the impact of teens studying the HSFPP curriculum. Does the program work? Did the subject LEARN the information? Did the knowledge they gained from learning the information give them the CONFIDENCE to act? Did the confidence to act lead to the subject to TAKE POSITIVE ACTION?
8 Evaluation of NEFE High School Financial Planning Program What students were asked: 14 core questions about their financial knowledge, financial management behaviors, and confidence about managing finances. Measures the changes in students knowledge, behavior and confidence both after completing the course and then three months later 18-month program evaluation
9 Evaluation Results Students who studied the program reported significant improvement in their financial knowledge, behavior, and confidence immediately after studying the HSFPP A smaller sampling of students surveyed three months later showed that the positive impact of the HSFPP continued and increased over time
10 University of Minnesota HSFPP Evaluation: Know Difference Between Needs and Wants Sample Data Strongly Agree Before After 3 Months Later 41.7% 66.9% 80.5% Understand Costs of Buying on Credit Set Money Aside for future needs and wants 12.2% 31.1% 48.9% 18.5% 27.9% 36.2% Believe the way I manage money will affect my future 33.1% 58.6% 73.0% For full reports, go to
11 Methodology: post-thenpre evaluation method Students are first asked about what they learned from studying the curriculum content After that questioning, they are then asked what their level of knowledge, confidence, or behavior was prior to studying the material Methodology
12 Increased Reliability More traditional method is Pre-test/post-test, which is a pre-test given before studying subject matter with a post-test given at the end of the presentation of the subject matter Answers in the post-then-pre method often are more reliable because students often do not know what they do or do not know before studying the material Asking them first about what they learned serves as a foundation to indicate what it is they actually did not know or do prior to studying the content
13 New for 2010 Inclusion of a pre-evaluation study a close-up look at four classes in different parts of the country to: See what we can learn about the effect of the performance-based learning pedagogy we employed in this version of the program Follow students from these classes to assess the longer term effects of their experience within the program in the classroom. Results will be presented the end of 2010
